Fretless PJ bitsa, body is a squire and the neck is an allparts unlined fretless with ebony board, with dots where 3rd,5th etc frets would be. P pickup is seymour duncan, bridge pickup is a di marzio, hipshot kickass bridge and gotoh gb10 machineheads. Couple of small marks on body and neck, nothing that affects playability. Sound is fantastic, really good mwaah if that's what your after, and with the bridge pickup soloed you're in classic jacoesque territory. Weight is approx 9lbs. Would prefer collection as no bag/case but can post well wrapped if need be, or can deliver personally within couple hours of witham, Essex.

Speak to Mike at Zootbass, he's building me 5 string from paulownia, should weigh less than 8lbs when complete.

On one particular jazz I had I used to raise the neck pickup slightly, or lower the bridge pickup, either way gets a similar result, still sounds like a jazz bass but with just a touch more body to the sound.

Are there any BassChatters who make Custom Scratchplates?

Mike at Zootbass makes excellent scratch plates. -
Big fan of ernie ball cobalt flats on my fretless, nice top end with good midrange thump.

Believe they were marketed as a TR Revelation, late 90's, early 2000's. Guitarist mag ( possibly bassist, I forget) did a review on one.

Just received this yesterday, courtesy of @bigthumb with a lot of help from Mark Newman. Absolutely fantastic amp, bags of power, great tones, how people can say that these amps are sterile is beyond me. Not as heavy as i feared either, it's no lightweight certainly but manageable.

Fave bands new to you that've been around for donkeys ears
GBH replied to Barking Spiders's topic in General Discussion
I have recently come to enjoy jethro tull, for years I just thought of them as weird folky stuff about witches delivered by cat weasel standing on one leg, actually bothered to delve a bit deeper and found out I liked it. -

Here we have a virtually brand new Sire P7 5 string, bought brand new from Andertons just before Easter this year. It has an Alder body, rosewood board with blocks and binding. Weight is a middling 4.6kg on my scales. Active and passive modes, 3 band EQ with variable mid, and a passive tone roll off that works in both passive and active. This bass is as it came from the shop, to all intents and purposes is a brand new bass. Price includes postage.

Well I've had a good Google, and have found chrome spiral bridges but not in black or gold. May to settle for chrome.

Is it me or is it difficult to find a 20mm spaced BBOT bridge, especially in gold or black? Loads of 19mm around. I realise that hipshot etc do many different types but I'm feeling tightfisted and want to spend that much. If any of you fine folk have any suggestions I'd be most grateful.

I've got a PJ with a seymour duncan p with a dimarzio stacked jazz at the bridge, it is a brilliant combination.

The one that got away in 99/00 Manchester Bass Centre
GBH replied to AndyTravis's topic in Bass Guitars
Late 80's, Markham music in Colchester had a blue ESP precision bass, with a maple neck, played it while trying out a laney combo, loved it to bits but couldn't afford it at the time, went back some time later but sadly gone. -
Sounds like the soundtrack to an episode of Morse.
